Falcon Families,
It was a busy week here at "the Nest!" Congratulations to Wrestling for their third place conference win! Top performers included Kaleb Perkins (1st), Palmer Wren (1st), Elliot Burns (2nd), Roman Mestas (2nd), Breck Crawford (3rd) and Demetrius Glenn (3rd). Also, congratulations to our 7th grade boys basketball in their cross-division game against Clover! This week, we celebrated our MAT/AVT Map score achievers with ice cream and outside time, and Ms. Gaskin won Dr. Schmolze's rock for "trusted professionalism." It was a successful week, Falcons!
Next week, please check your email for team newsletters and homework assignments. All teams should be sending these out on a weekly basis, and all students should have assignments and IXL to practice. There's always room for growth, and we encourage our students to keep working at it! An example of a hard worker is 7th grader Jaiden! He works extremely hard at his academic growth and he shows it daily! We are very proud of his outstanding perseverance and achievment! Way to go, Jaiden!

As Falcons, we don't want to just "meet the requirement" as student-athletes. We want to raise the bar! Coming soon will be new guidelines for all student-athletes, no matter the sport. Our Falcons will SOAR, and they will show their Falcon Pride through their academic excellence and sportsmanship.
S-Sportsmanship
O-Ownership
A-Academics and Attendance
R-Represent as Role Models
Falcons will be required to hold at least a C in classes; Bs and As are preferred. Should a student drop below a C in any class, then tutoring will be required instead of practice. Students will not be penalized for attending tutoring. Students are expected to attend school and meet attendance requirements, and they should show exemplary behavior in class.
Academics, attendance and behavior will be checked weekly.
As Falcons, we believe that Academics comes first, and student-athletes are role models for all. Falcons represent Sullivan as proud, outstanding student-athletes who will be ready to meet the next level of expectations in high school and beyond.
